YOU  CAN  HELP  POORPAWS! Amanda Lawrence, a local lady, has written a lively and informative book about life in the Lot. The book, Black Wine, White Rock, has had great reviews and would make a super gift or great holiday reading. It costs 11 euros and Amanda has kindly offered to donate two euros per book to Poorpaws for every copy bought through this website - see form attached. So settle down for a good read and help the dogs at the same time!


Hey, where did everyone go ?!  There I was having great fun and tumbles with brother George and pal Dillon when all of a sudden on the same afternoon, George went off to a life of Riley with the Whites and Dillon has gone to be spoilt rotten by the Seymour Allens !! WHAT ABOUT ME?!!My name is Blossom, I'm three months old, I'm cute, I'm pretty, I LOVE everyone, I'm housetrained AND I WANT A LOVELY FAMILY OF MY OWN TOO !!  As soon as possible please as I hear Sue saying my training is to start in earnest very soon. I don't have a mobile, but you can leave a message for me on the Poorpaws line. I'm waiting!


 
 

 

 
This is the fabulous Scooby, a fine  two and a half year male Border Colley.  Scooby's owners have to return to the UK due to ill health and sadly cannot take Scooby.  Border Colleys for adoption are rare, so we are hoping that all you BC lovers will pull out all the stops to find a new loving home for Scooby.

 

 


 
Cosmo and Cali were adopted from Poorpaws six months ago, but due to a change in their adoptive family's circumstances a new home has to be found for them - not necessarily together.  Cosmo's mum, Cosmo is the one with the white on his chest, is a black Lab and dad is Mario, a well known Border Collie who lives at the Auberge de la Tour in Sauzet.  Cali is one of a group of pups found in a plastic bag in a dustbin.  Castrated / sterilised and fully vaccinated Cosmo and Cali are lovely dogs looking for a home where their owners will have more time to spend with them. 

 

 

 

 


 
 
Dipsy a three month mongrel with a bit of Terrier and perhaps some Lab and perhaps a bit of others too !!
Dipsy was found all on her own in the middle of nowhere with no collar or identification.  Efforts to find out where she came from have proved fruitless.  She is a lively young lady, very affectionate and has obviously been training for the Waggy Tail  event in the forthcoming olympics !  She has had her first vaccination and is just longing to take you on long walks - cheaper than the gym !!
 


 
Shabel,  this black beauty had a stroke of luck after some very bad luck.  She was found, heavily pregnant, by the side of the road by a very good samaritan who took her to the vet, got her sorted and then took her home.  Unfortunately her guardian angel cannot keep her so we are looking for a kind home.  Shabel is, by all accounts, about 4 years old, is obediant, loving, good with other dogs, great with kids and is now sterilised and chipped.  Ideal for those of you who don't want puppies or pensioners !!
 

 
This is six year old Perli. Perli's owner  has to move to the city and poor Perli is not at all keen. An all round lovely dog Perli would be great for a middle aged couple who don't want too young a dog.  Don't look so worried Perli, it will all work out well.

 


 


 
 


 

 

Freddie is a ten year old Jack Russell but don't let figures blind you, he is very lively and a champion ratter !!  He's not keen on other male dogs either.  It would be a pity if this little chap had to spend the rest of his days in a refuge.
